Fry's Output has these suckers for $74.99 - $40 rebate:

It looks like the single 160GB platter 7K160 (7200rpm consumer-rated):

But it could be another model.

As always, da'BS recommends if you go with a consumer-rated drive, use
at least software or FRAID mirroring (RAID-1) or make backups
regularly (possibly to another on-line disk).  The T7K series are
Hitachi's enterprise-rated versions of the 7K series.
